Based on my current understanding MIG brazing is great for sheet metal on cars even if not required by the manufacturers, e.g. for classic cars when this method back then was not known. To me it is advantageous because sometimes the sheet metal could be a bit thinner due to rust and the danger of burning holes into it is lower. Furthermore repair sheet metal that is zinc coated can be used without removing this coating in the area to work on. And if the back side is not accessible the preservation doesn’t require additional cumbersome rust protection afterwards.
Ok, after this rather long prolog I’m interested in a suitable machine that is not too expensive. I found this one:
https://www.amazon.de/ISKRA-INVERTER-ecoline-SCHUTZGASSCHWEIßGERÄT-ISKRAVAR/dp/B06W2G2X55
Strangely, this specific type (CuSi - especially for MIG brazing, but also MIG/MAG welding) is not to be found on the Iskravar site in Slovenia - only the standard MIG 165i eco. So hopefully this link to Amazon in Germay is shown in English due to your default browser setting. If not I have copied the pertinent information, too.
Professional inverter inert gas welding machine for DIY enthusiasts and for industry with Euro hole Zent Ralan stool top for steel, stainless steel and aluminium welding easy handling and setting the soft and sturdy ARC welding results guaranteed Spritzerarme practical Gasflaschenhalterung S certification: Approved for welding in cramped spaces welding locations with increased Electric health risks Designed for 5kg wire rolls Quality made in Europe, Slovenia, of course, with a copper core optimal housing structure and standby connection of fan make the for a quiet and comfortable Suitable for continuous use. Technical Data: Supply Voltage 230 V 50/60 Hz Welding Wire 0.6 – 0.9 mm Protection Rating: IP 23 insulation class H Fuse 16 A Träge 11 V – 26 open circuit voltage V Welding Range: 20 – 165 A Duty cycle 100% – 80 A Duty cycle 60% 100 A Duty cycle 35% 130 A cooling AF Dimensions L x W x H) 400/290/310 mm Weight 14 kg.
The pictures showing the machine let me assume that it is a quite simple inverter with only manual adjustments but should be fine (not much to break).
